That is a broad question. If your hand actually hurts all the time whenever you move it then you need an evaluation by an orthopedist, and not an on-lne answer. You need to be worked up for carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, gout, just to name a few. You will need xrays as well.

I have had a belly piercing for 6 months now and just recently it has started bleeding and there is a red bulbly thing under the bottom ball of the ring its very sore as well please help?

The bubble is probably HT scarring. If you're wearing a ring in it, switch that out for a bar. rings get hit too often. Then, go out and buy some tea tree oil. It should be around the vitamins in a walmart or target. After you clean your piercing in the morning, dab a little bit of the oil on the bubble. Don't put it in the actual piercing. Leave the oil on there all day until you clean it at night. Use the oil everyday but if its too drying, cut back to every other day.The oil will dry up the bubble and it'll start to flake off till its gone. it could take days, months, or weeks, no way to tell. You can also go out and get some chamomile tea bags and use those. Soak them in some warm water then press them against your piercing/bubble. The chamomile is really soothing so it should get rid of the soreness.

If you chew oxycodone can it kill you?

I guess it can. depending on size of person and ammount chewed. it says right on the bottle not too, and the docs know more then me, but by chewing your Oxycontin all its doing is turning it into oxycodone IR, and yes those can kill you too. a 90lb girl who is percribed 80 mg's a day by aking 1 40mg in the am and another in the pm and instead chews 240MGS right when she gets up yea it could kill her. shoot ive been perscribed oxycodoneIR 30MGs for 2 years and weigh 210 and would die if i chewed up 14 of them or 400 MGs, but that's just crazy. by taking the 90 MG's of oxy IR im basically chewing up a Oxycontin 80 plus some and im fine. The only time it gets scary is when some1 is perscribed both oxycodone IR and Oxycontin because the IR will hit u right away like its supposed too however so will the oxy wic is supposed to take about 8-12 hours instead of the 20 min itd take by chewing them so if u took your 3 30mg oxycodone IR's in the AM with your 2 Oxycontin 80's and chewed them you body would get 270 MG's in 20min instead of 90 for the 1st 20 min then about 10 mg's and hour on the 80's so it would take 16 hours for you to take in what would hit you in 20 minute if you chew them, but its not unheard of by any means. some legit users do it, and almost 100 percent of the abusers shoot or sniff them which cant be any better then chewwing them so just be easy with it chew a litle and see how you feel before u take more if your going to do it.
